How Ford BlueCruise Works
BlueCruise delivers hands-free highway driving based on advanced driver-assistance technology programs like Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering. BlueCruise requires that drivers pay attention to the road ahead by using an internal driver-facing camera system to monitor distracted or drowsy driving.
BlueCruise hands-free driving is available in pre-qualified sections of divided highways known as Blue Zones when lane lines are clearly visible to the vehicle's sensors. Some of the popular Texas roads that BlueCruise works on include the TX-289 Loop and I-27 for adventures beyond Abernathy, TX.
